Abstract:
Objective To investigate the multiple correspondence of genetic and environmental risk factors with abnormal birth history and provide a scientific basis for improving the birth defects surveillance system and reducing the incidence of birth defects. Methods Data were collected from all the perinatal infants from 28-week-old fetuses to 7-day-old infants born in all the hospitals with obstetrical department in Xi'an from 2003 to 2015. Results A total of 1 236 937 perinatal infants were surveyed,including 10 619 with birth defects.The average incidence rate of birth defects was 0.86% (0.70%-1.15%).Multiple correspondence analysis showed that the women who had had 1 or 2 children with birth defects were associated with the history of spontaneous abortion,family history of birth defects,and history of exposure to toxic and harmful substances.The women who had had 3 or more children with birth defects showed stronger association with family history of birth defects.The birth defects in women with history of spontaneous abortion (257/10 619) was ranked in the order of congenital heart disease,polydactyly,neural tube defects,congenital hydrocephalus,cleft lip with cleft palate,and simple cleft lip.The birth defects in women who had given birth to children with birth defects (135/10 619) followed the order of cleft lip with cleft palate,anencephaly,hydrocephalus,neural tube defects,cleft lip,and talipes equinovarus. Conclusions Abnormal birth history is associated with family history of birth defects and history of exposure to environmental risk factors.Giving birth to three or more children with birth defects is highly correlated with the family history of birth defects.
